is one of the most acute expressions of powerlessness because it constitutes
a loss of control over one's physical space. Indigenous peoples, the
poor and other marginalised groups are increasingly choosing to resist
DIDR in the hope that this will prove more effective in protecting their
long-term interests than co-operation (Fisher 1999).
